Considering that the biggest machines that do the most work are
made up of smaller machines and components, it becomes obvious that
when a large machine breaks, it is normally due to small components
acting antagonistically. Detailing a time-tested method for
increasing productivity and lowering operational costs, Spend
Analysis and Specification Development Using Failure Interpretation
explains how to establish performance-based procurement
specifications for the components, devices, and items that
contribute the most to operational downtime and repair/replacement
costs. The book emphasizes the critical need to perform both spend
and failure analysis in order to develop a procurement document,
which will ultimately reduce overall costs. Accompanied by
downloadable resources with helpful material such as, specification
checklists, case study worksheets, form letters, and return on
investment (ROI) worksheets that you can customize to your needs,
the text discusses how to: Identify the products that will cost the
most if they fail Develop performance-based procurement
specifications to reduce direct and indirect costs Examine cost
analysis as it relates to operations, maintenance, and production
Determine effective criteria based on properties, test results, and
standards for each operation Written by an industry expert with
decades of experience giving seminars, training customers and
associates, and authoring numerous papers and articles, the text
provides the real-world understanding of the influential components
and materials' physical properties needed to engage in effective
failure and spend analysis. It addresses product submission and
monitoring and includes helpful tools so you can immediately get
started on conducting your own cost-saving analysis.

This guide serves as a workbook to be used in conjunction with an
approved course offered by a training partner recognized by the
International Council for Machinery Lubrication (ICML) for a
Machinery Lubrication Technician (MLT I or II) certification exam
preparation course. The essence of this work is a guided,
cooperative, and sometimes even argumentative dialogue between the
authors, with continuous asking and answering of questions. This
stimulates critical thinking, which in turn draws out underlying
presumptions, and results in readers thinking like the person who
actually built the exam. The authors are strong proponents of a
unique 5-step process for learning: 1. Familiarize 2. Find Socrates
3. Be the Exam 4. Practice Exam 5. Explore This unconventional
method has proven to be exceptionally effective, not for only
passing the exam, but to truly retaining the knowledge and becoming
an expert in the content you’re studying. Certification
requirements are discussed throughout the work, making this the
ideal resource for prospective MLT I and/or MLT II certification
candidates. Unique Structured learning Notes Outline: For the
reader to complete. Aids in organizing ideas and thoughts. Guided
Cooperative Argument: A dialogue between authors concerning the
topics. Helps answer questions that are asked on the job.
Statements of Truth and Exam Development: From the recommended Body
of Knowledge, with space to develop your multiple-choice questions.
Develops critical thinking process and understanding of how the
exam questions are structured. Body of Knowledge Outline: Works as
a reference to help answer any questions that may arise. Practice
Exam: A mock exam designed to familiarize the reader with taking a
multiple-choice test that is similar in structure and content to
the real one. Glossary & Appendices: List of common terms,
charts, and tables with which all certification candidates need to
be familiar.
This is the most comprehensive dictionary of maintenance and
reliability terms ever compiled, covering the process,
manufacturing, and other related industries, every major area of
engineering used in industry, and more. The over 15,000 entries are
all alphabetically arranged and include special features to
encourage usage and understanding. They are supplemented by
hundreds of figures and tables that clearly demonstrate the
principles & concepts behind important process control,
instrumentation, reliability, machinery, asset management,
lubrication, corrosion, and much much more. With contributions by
leading researchers in the field: Zaki Yamani Bin Zakaria
